The Pennine Interchangeable Pod – The PiP® has arrived!

After a year of intense research and development, and consultations with education professionals, Pennine Playgrounds are delighted to have launched The PiP®. This is a unique concept in outdoor education which uses changeable interactive learning panels.

Offering an infinite amount of play and learning opportunities, The PiP® is a versatile educational arena for all ages and abilities. It provides an environment that stimulates children's imagination and creativity as well as developing fine motor skills.

One Headteacher at the TES Education Show in Manchester commented "It is the most exciting thing that has been designed for the outdoor classroom in years!"

Beautifully crafted high quality PiP® Poles come with a no quibble 15 year guarantee and your PiP® Learning Panels are hand made with a 3 year guarantee.

Dame Clare Tickell states, 'I recommend that playing and exploring, active learning, and creating thinking critically are highlighted in the EYFS as three characteristics of effective teaching and learning.'

We've tried and tested it, and the kids love it - something new to do every time! Here are some of the uses we've discovered, but you'll see many more…..
